Chapter 787: The Chancellor's Location Leaked
Chapter 787: The Chancellor's Location Leaked
"Then keep an eye on it," said Emperor Manina XIII, ready to end the call.
But at that moment, Xi Weng spoke up, "Your Majesty, should we take action?"
"Take action? What do you mean?" Manina was a bit confused.
"I mean sending people to the Anka Kingdom," Xi Weng explained. "The Anka kingdom is facing a major crisis and needs us to step in and maintain stability. If our people can arrive before the Lankteans, we might be able to better secure the Anka kingdom, which would be highly advantageous for our Solar Empire's diplomacy."
After hearing Xi Weng's words, Emperor Manina XIII didn't respond immediately. He fell into deep thought.
After about two minutes, he spoke to the AI system in his study, "Sunlight, display Cao Cao's real-time movement route."
"Of course, Master," the AI Sunlight replied immediately. Soon, a 3D map of the entire Skru planet appeared before him.
On the northern hemisphere of the 3D map, red threads appeared, representing Cao Cao's recent movements.
Manina and Plante had been chasing Cao Cao, but Cao Cao's "Veil's "Veil's Concealment" technique was too powerful, and they couldn't catch up.
Plante and his companion didn't hide their auras or locations, so the red thread on the map was drawn based on their auras' positions.
Manina looked at the map.
He noticed that Chancellor Cao was currently in the center of the Wild Continent, the area with the strongest and densest concentration of magical beasts.
Moreover, it had been nearly a day, and Chancellor Cao showed no signs of leaving the Wild Continent for Skru territory, which reassured Manina.
So, Manina said in the call, "Xi Weng, I will personally go to the Anka kingdom. Inform the Anka king that I am on my way."
Manina had a hunch that something was amiss in the Anka kingdom. The timing of the incident was very peculiar.
The primary reason was that only the Solar Empire had both the motive and the capability to target the Anka prince and the Lanktean merchant.
Since it wasn't the Solar Empire, then who could be behind this?
Manina wanted to see for himself.
Hearing the emperor's words, Xi Weng was startled, "But Your Majesty, Cao Cao hasn't been subdued by our divine control yet. He poses a significant threat to your safety. If it's not absolutely necessary, I suggest you stay in the country for your safety."
"No problem," Manina smiled calmly. "I just saw Cao Cao's real-time movement. He's been active in the Wild Continent and hasn't left it. The Wild Continent is ten thousand eight hundred miles away from the Anka kingdom in the southern hemisphere. There's no need to worry about him being there."
"Then... alright, I'll inform the Anka king right away." Since the emperor had made his decision, Xi Weng, as a loyal minister, had no choice but to comply.
...
An hour later, at 5 PM, Emperor Manina XIII boarded his personal antimatter flyer and headed to the Anka kingdom.
His style was always decisive and efficient, and his own strength (Upper Seventh Rank) was formidable enough that he didn't need a security detail. He could go wherever he wished.
But just as the flyer entered Anka territory, he suddenly received an urgent message from Xi Weng, "Your Majesty, it's bad! Cao Cao's appearance on Skru has been leaked online! The entire internet is in chaos!"
"What do you mean?"
Manina was taken aback. "Who the hell leaked that information?"
"It's... it's..." After a long hesitation, Elder Xi finally replied, "It was Lady Cecilia who leaked the information. She had Cindy Doppler post the news about Cao Cao's appearance on social media."
Xi then sent a screenshot of Cindy Doppler's social media post.
Cindy Doppler had written on social media: "Citizens of the Beak Kingdom, fellow Skrullians,
I have just received a message from Lady Cecilia. The top-tier powerhouse of the Blue Star, the peak Eighth-Class powerhouse Cao Cao, has arrived on our Skrull Star. Currently, seven God-Class powerhouses are working together to hunt him down.
No matter who you are, it's best not to venture into the Wildlands today to avoid any collateral damage. If Cao Cao leaves the Wildlands, I will notify everyone immediately. Please do not panic."
Cindy Doppler's account had over 40 million followers on the social media platform, making her a well-known figure.
If a regular person had posted this news, it might have gone unnoticed. However, her message was immediately and widely shared, making it known to the entire network.
As soon as the news broke, it sparked not just a heated discussion, but a full-blown panic.
The internet had already been buzzing with the latest scandal from the Ank Kingdom. No one expected that there was an even bigger scandal waiting for them!
Cao Cao, a God-Class peak powerhouse, had actually come to Skrull Star!
If Cao Cao were to wreak havoc in Skrullian cities, the destruction would be catastrophic, and countless lives would be lost.
Upon learning this news, the Skrullians still in the Wildlands fell into extreme fear, desperately seeking ways to flee the area.
Even those on other continents were not much better off.
The news of Cao Cao's appearance was like telling them that an antimatter missile was hanging over their heads, and they didn't know if or when it would explode.
If it did, there would be no place to bury the dead!
The entire online community was gripped by intense fear. Netizens frantically discussed the situation and prayed that Cao Cao wouldn't come to their area, causing chaos in the digital world.
...
Manina was furious when he saw the screenshot.
The thing he had feared the most these past two days was the news of Cao Cao's arrival on Skrull Star being leaked.
Many of the high-ranking officials in the Leryang knew about this, but they all had the unspoken agreement to keep it under wraps. Any leaks on the network were quickly deleted.
But Cindy Doppler was different.
As the leader of the Beak Kingdom with over 40 million followers, by the time the network moderators discovered her post, it was already too late to delete it.
Manina flew into a rage, shouting at Xi'ang on the plane, "Why did Cecilia do this? Doesn't she realize how much panic this will cause among the people?"
"Um... I don't quite understand it myself," Old Man Xi replied hesitantly. "Lady Cecilia is a God-Class powerhouse, so she must have her reasons, I suppose."
"Old Master Xi, immediately contact the Ancestor. I want to know what's going on!" Manina said with a dark expression.
"Understood." Xi responded immediately.
